Photographer reminds people how Barack Obama was better than Donald Trump during disasters

US President Donald Trump has faced some criticism for apparently not showing enough sympathy in his response to the devastation left by Hurricane Harvey in Texas last week.

Now Pete Souza, the official photographer for former President Barack Obama, has taken a veiled swipe at Trump's perceived weak weak response.

Last week, Souza posted a 2012 photo of Obama comforting a survivor of Hurricane Sandy on his Instagram page. Part of his caption read: “There are no Democrats or Republicans hurting in Houston; there are just Americans."
